but I am trying to get my head round the Google Apps Engine. I am not a developer in anyway shape or form, but for my sins, what I do understand is developing Domino applications, so I am trying to understand the whole GAE process in that context.
Could someone fill in the blanks/confirm my understanding? NSF = Google datastore? Domino Form = how end users input information into NSF but what is the GAE equivalent? Is it just as simple as a html form? Domino View = how to render that imputted data in a sensible manner back to the user accessing the NSF. And again what is the GAE equivalent? agents = little programs that can manuipulate the data, alert when conditions are meet etc. This bit is is a bit more straightforward to me - scheduled scripts that check, amend, alert as appropriate. scripts in domino are written with Formular language, lotusscript etc - this is replaced by python in GAE? Access control - can be governed as part of the google apps account where necessary. As a real world example, if I create a holiday request application in domino, I would create a new database, have a form which users would fill in stating name and dates requested, on saving this form, a notification would be generated to the manager in question, the manager would then go the request, authorize/deny the holiday, mark the request as complete and a notification of authorization/rejection sent back to the requestor. Essentially if you can help me get my head round the GAE equals I'd be very grateful thanks Tony --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
